  1. How do you jack up your Type R?

    that block doesn't deform the little metal seams at all?seems like it would smoosh them a little
  2. How do you jack up your Type R?

    I noticed the manual says the preferred jack point is deep in the middle of the car.. . the first time i used a ramp to get some lift and then put the jack in there to lift it up.. Is there a better way? Do any of you guys have an ultra low profile jack that can slide under deep enough to that...
  3. I found this on a google search and it is so wise I wanted to share it - from a person I have never met named Steve Brereton.

    Does heat wrapping the turbo create premature failure somewhere else? I have not heard of that. The rest of his post is just drivel you find on every single forum since car forums existed. Watch out don't blow up your engine, it's expensive!! PAY TO PLAY, and dont ramp up your torque so fast on...
  4. Trading in FL5 for G80 M3?

    have you tried swapping in the integra damper module? I did and love the type R twice as much. comfort mode is actually pretty decent with it. that might help the kids. But honestly if you have two kids in the back i might get the M just for safety. I dont feel like the civic would do as well...

  7. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    when a 2026 is finally purchased, and it indeed is identical , it should be posted here and this worthless, speculative, no good, old granny yarn of a thread should be sealed and locked.
  8. Stolen 2025 Boost Blue Stolen

    if OP had his key in a faraday pouch, how do they steal our type R's usually? They can hack in by going thru the obd port?
  9. Making this car more raw?

    touche indeed, but no , i dont think it's these other psychological factors you mention, just follow me on this: You blind fold yourself on an endless tarmac, and you just drive in any direction you want, any speed you want, turn this way and that. feeling wise, the type R feels better than the...
  10. Making this car more raw?

    everything is subjective when we're talking about feelings, but I dont agree that it cant compare to high end cars. To me, It does in the sense that it is a pleasure to drive, more so than some exotics. my comparisons are limited, but to me the feeling is much better than a Huracan anywhere...
  11. Did the climate control knob update

    do you just pull the old ones straight off or do you have to depress something?

  13. Does anyone do oil changes on their own even under warranty?

    these type rs are the only new cars ive ever had. I guess they can keep their two free oil changes
  14. Does anyone do oil changes on their own even under warranty?

    This is my second type r, the first was a lemon. When i brought the last type R in for the free service they somehow pinched the oil filter such that it burst at one point and it started leaking all over the damn engine bay and undercarriage. it appeared they had used some type of wrench on...
  15. Bummed so far with FL5 aftermarket exhaust sound

  18. TSP FL5 - 502whp and counting [2023 Honda Civic Type R Tuned & Modified]

    Can we get an update on your little beast? And can I ask, what is the car like in 2nd gear WOT, can it hook up?
  19. Are these cars actually reliable?

    Well fwiw, Mine had recurring issue with a high pressure fuel pump. and honda stepped up and bought it back from me for nearly what i paid. I bought another type R to replace it, and love the brand more than ever. They are the most stand up company I have ever dealt with.
  20. Upgrading Turbos….more fun?

    it's not really lag boost wise, just they are altering the ignition timing to be less aggressive compared to how hard it could come on, to smooth out the torque curve so it doesnt ramp up real fast down low
